Idol’s Childhood Friend - Chapter 40
40 – Is this going to be controversial?
Dating is bound to be an Achilles heel for celebrities, especially idols.
Experience has accumulated, the artist receives absolute support from fans, and the other person is a good person – only when you date under these three prerequisites can you receive a favorable response and support for your love.
So, in the case of Chaewon and I, we have to think about one case, but strictly speaking, we have to think about two cases.
“It’s been 7 years, but I’m now 24.”
Should I say that I continued to win and became the youngest team leader?
If you count the years, most fans react to the dating rumor as if something has exploded……
The problem is that he is young compared to his years of experience.
Considering that the average age of public dating is over 25, it is inevitable to tilt your head to the side.
Honestly, putting all these things aside, the most important thing is this.
“Have I lived a good life so far?”
Place both hands together and recite seriously.
I, Kang Yu-min, 23 years old.
I am looking back on my life for the sake of dating my childhood friend.
“Mr. Yumin. “What kind of life have you lived so far?”
Chaewon holds the smartphone like a microphone and extends it to me.
He glanced at me with a concerned expression and answered quietly.
“It’s a decent life, it’s a mess, and all I do is study, so there’s nothing left.”
I, Kang Yu-min, 23 years old.
I haven’t done anything in 23 years of my life.
That is my conclusion.
“I know. “You’ve had a boring life so far.”
“… Have you ever heard of defamation by stating the facts?”
“Honestly, your playing time has increased since you started hanging out with me. “You’ve been to an amusement park, a water park, and camping.”
“… Right. “This is my first time doing it all with you.”
“The real Kang Yu-min. “How are you going to live because it’s no fun without me?”
You lie down using my thighs as a pillow and smile brightly.
Hearing that it feels good to stroke my head, my hand now naturally goes towards my head.
“If I wasn’t going somewhere with you, I was really just studying. Especially in high school, after you debuted, I didn’t go anywhere and just went to my home school and academy. “I only regularly attend Taekwondo as a hobby.”
“Then what we need to pay attention to now is past controversies, so what should we do? “There was one controversy throughout your school days.”
“Which one?”
“It’s me. “The dating rumor asks when the two will start dating.”
Chaewon points to her face with her finger.
It was absurd, but if you think about it, it was an indisputable fact, so I burst out laughing.
I playfully press the tip of her nose.
“That’s right. “Is this going to be controversial?”
“Han Chae-won, I was dating even before my debut. “There’s already an article title published?”
“… “Wow, it’s really provocative when you write it like that.”
“If you do this, will Forever leave you alone?”
“… Oh. “Is that really going to be controversial?”
If Forever’s enthusiasm is measured by the number of people who came to their concerts, the number of audiences who came to see the last world tour was 1.5 Million. If you take into account those who failed to get tickets……
I don’t know how many people there will be, but I will be able to hear affectionate words from the most people in my life.
Okay, let’s stop looking into it.
“Should we postpone public dating for a bit?”
“It was too much for me right now. But if you want to have me, you have to be prepared for this, baby.”
Chaewon smiles and strokes my cheek.
Once you see that alluring smile, all your worries disappear in an instant.
“I still don’t have enough resolve, so I returned it———.”
“… ….”
“… I can’t do the same thing anyway. That wasn’t in my options in the first place. Uh, then. How hard I held your hand. “I will absolutely protect Han Chae-won.”
“… ….”
Chaewon listens silently with so-called dead eyes, and belatedly nods her head slowly.
I took my hand and placed it on my stomach, and since it was clearly a signal for me to rub, I quickly drew a circle.
Okay, I learned. In the past, it was a joke that would have been laughed at, but now I understand that jokes like this have a very high chance of getting scolded.
… Wow, this is what living is like.
“Shall we set some rules?”
I quickly change the story to lighten the mood.
Luckily, it was Chaewon who seemed to be interested and blinked as she looked in my direction.
“Rules?”
“We may know each other a lot, but you and I are new to dating. “As much as we are clumsy, we want to talk about this and that in advance to reduce fights.”
“For example, do you want us to talk about what we want each other to do?”
“That’s good, and I’m just saying let’s get to know each other romantically, including things we don’t want each other to do. “Because love can make you feel sad even over trivial things.”
“Good. It’s really good, Minah! “I wanted to try something like this!”
“For now, let’s write it down unconditionally. “It’s okay to take it out later.”
“I want to write it down!”
Chaewon stands up from her seat with a very excited face and quickly takes the iPad that was next to her.
I easily unlock it with my face and immediately pick up the pencil and get ready to write.
“No matter what, I express my feelings honestly.”
“That’s okay.”
“If there is something you want to say to each other, say it quickly. “At this time, do not raise your voice and listen calmly to each other.”
“It says there, ‘Don’t fire a river shot just because you can’t communicate.’”
“Kabi~.”
Ji Ji-bae writes down with a truly regretful expression.
I wondered if this was the expression of someone who suddenly became an idol and his girlfriend, but I just ignored it and continued talking.
“If we fight, how about skinship right away?”
“What are you trying to do?”
“First hug me so hard like crazy, and then kiss me so hard that I lose my senses?”
“… Isn’t this something you brought up with the intention of reconciliation? “This is the first time I’ve ever heard of retaliatory skinship in my life.”
“But wouldn’t the effect be amazing?”
“I’m not even able to breathe, am I?”
“A test to see if I can rest or not?”
You turn your body slightly and look at me with bright eyes.
As soon as our eyes meet, he immediately lowers his gaze little by little, and then he blatantly stares at my lips.
As I narrowed the distance little by little and smiled, it felt like I could get away without it……
“Wasn’t we banned from pushing and selling?”
That’s right. There is no reason to endure it anymore, and I can’t get over it if I don’t do it.
A short kiss instead of a kiss. Afterwards, with a bit of revenge, he gently bites his lower lip with his upper teeth.
“Shall we make a bet? “If this happens, who will be affected more?”
At the end, I touch your bitten lip with my thumb and smile.
“Am I confident?”
“… ….”
“You like betting. Why don’t you do it this time?”
“… I’m not going to do it, so do it again. Properly.”
Anyone can see that he is on the verge of pouting.
I hug you and pat your back as you close the distance with a blunt voice.
“We are equals. Write one down there. Let’s ask each other for favors, but not give orders.”
“… ….”
“Are you going to write it down?”
As I waited with a smile on my face, Chaewon quickly scribbled with an angry expression on her lips.
Well, on the iPad I was holding with both hands, I saw a large sentence with a highlight and an asterisk.
“I wrote it.”
“Thank you. “The handwriting is pretty.”
“…… Is that the end?”
I was angry and upset, but I kept blinking as if I couldn’t bear it anymore.
I stare at that expression and close my eyes with a shallow smile.
“I told you yesterday, Chaewon.”
You can just do it———.
As soon as those words were finished, a soft touch spread across my lips.
A bold move of the tongue that seems to pour out emotions. Slightly rough breaths passed over each other’s faces, and when you opened your eyes and parted your lips, your shiny lips were visible.
“Is it worth practicing all day yesterday and today?”
He lightly rubs your lips with his thumb again, putting a smile on his lips.
“… You, be honest. “Have you ever been in a relationship?”
“Thank you for the compliment. But you have zero skills for filming a kissing scene———.”
“That should be banned. I’ll never act proudly mature about something like that again, yeah. Stop.”
Chaewon quickly covers my mouth by putting her index finger on my lips.
Looking at his red face, he seemed to be very embarrassed.
Well, when the kissing scene came out, he told me some stupid nonsense, saying that he was a mature actor and all that, but that he had surpassed the limits of art that can be expressed as an idol, so it’s natural that he should be embarrassed.
Even when the behind-the-scenes details were shamelessly revealed, ‘It came out like a kiss scene, so it was a kiss scene. They even went so far as to use the absurd logic of saying, ‘If you refute it, do it.’
Yes. I thought I would get scolded one day.
I didn’t know that I would personally scold him with a kiss.
“Should I write this down too?”
Chaewon timidly nods her head in response to my question and slowly writes clearly on her iPad.
The font size is larger than the sentence I wrote earlier, and there are as many as three stars in it.
I smile slightly and stroke your cheek with the back of my hand.
Afterwards, we talked about various things and expanded the provisions.
If something is difficult, talk about it without trying to hide it. Anyway, since we’ve been in a relationship for 15 years, I know everything just by looking at my facial expression and voice. Don’t think of this as whining.
You may not do it later, but write letters to each other by hand on the weekend. It doesn’t matter what or how much you write, so just write it down.
Don’t do anything that could cause misunderstanding from the beginning. If you find yourself in such an uncomfortable situation, tell the truth and work hard to find a way to resolve it.
Acknowledge each other’s economic differences, but above all, consider the kindness of the other person.
Sometimes, when they get upset for no reason, wait by their side until they open up, and express your gratitude to them for waiting.
In addition, we talked all day long and listened to each other, such as what kind of skinship we liked the most and what we wanted to improve.
There were a lot of things I understood as we had known each other for a long time, but there were also a few things that made me wonder, ‘Why did they promise me this?’
But today it was important to see each other as lovers……
“… Hereinafter, if it is not properly followed, the other party is given the right to command without any possibility of refusal. “If you don’t like the power of command, pay the other person 100 million won in gold.”
“No matter how much you think about it, isn’t 100 million too strong and not even the name of someone’s dog?”
“You just have to keep your promise. “Are you sure you’re not confident?”
“…… Why didn’t you take the CSAT? “With this head, it’s Seoul.”
We ended the story by leaving each other’s signatures.
It’s already getting dark outside.
For dinner, we ordered and ate Nakgopsae, which Chaewon wanted to eat, and afterwards we spent time watching a movie.

“Let’s go out.”
I was a little worried when I was told to go outside and take a walk, as I was tired of staying indoors, but I nodded.
It was already past 10 p.M.
There was nothing else besides the apartment complex nearby, so I only had to worry about the residents of the apartment complex, and since most of them were office workers who had to go to work the next day, it was rare to encounter anyone even if I walked around the complex.
I thought my body aches had eased a lot, so it was the perfect time to take a light walk.
Wearing a hat, each person comes outside with their favorite drink in a tumbler.
Because it was a relatively new apartment building, the interior of the complex was as well landscaped as a small park, so there was something to see in its own way.
We walked around the complex slowly, holding hands and matching our steps, and sat in the pavilion of the playground that came into view just in time to feel the quiet summer night with our whole body.
The moon is shining unusually brightly.
“Minah.”
“Yes.”
“I’m all better now, shall we go home tomorrow?”
“Do whatever you want. “It’s a pity, though.”
“… Really? Do you really think you would be sad without me?”
As I spoke quietly, Chaewon turned her head with bright eyes.
You smiled brightly as if you were so happy that I, who rarely expresses my emotions, expressed them honestly and frankly, and I also smiled shallowly when I saw you like that.
“What man in the world wouldn’t be sad if his girlfriend said she was going home? Besides, if we break up this time, we can only see each other during the next filming.”
“… I see “It’s nice for you to be with me too.”
“Of course, Jijibae.”
I shake the hand I’m holding and kiss the back of your hand.
I looked into your eyes indifferently, and this time you kissed the back of my hand and looked at me as if you loved me.
“Are you going to tell me the story?”
In such a rambling manner, you raised your voice.
“… “If I wasn’t going to do it, I wouldn’t have set the tone like this.”
“I will listen until you finish speaking, so please confess everything. “Because I want to know everything about your heart.”
“Of course. “You promised.”
He said so, but his lips did not separate easily.
Where and how should I start talking?
I pondered with a shallow smile and a sigh, but in the end, there was only one answer.
“It’s still complicated and subtle. “Even now, I love you to my heart’s content.”
Let’s talk from the beginning.
Even though I held you, it wasn’t easy for me to still face ‘that day’.
